Answers:

  • first box =  0.84x
  • second box = 84

=================================================

Explanation:

Think of x - 0.2x as 1x-0.2x. The numbers out front, the 1 and -0.2, combine to 0.8

The 0.8 converts to 80%, meaning that if there's a 20% off sale, then you still have to pay the remaining 80% of the original price.

The 1.05 indicates that we started with 100%, and then add on 5% sales tax, so 100% + 5% = 1 + 0.05 = 1.05

---------------

Simplifying the expression given to us leads to

1.05(x - 0.2x)

1.05(1x - 0.2x)

1.05(0.8x)

(1.05*0.8)x

0.84x

This shows that the final price, after tax, is 84% of the original price.

Answer:

0.84 and 84

Step-by-step explanation:

1.05 (x -0.2x) = 1.05 (1-0.2)x = 1.05 * 0.8 x= 0.84x

84% of the original price of item

A person is watching a boat from the top of a lighthouse. The boat is approaching the lighthouse directly. When first noticed, t
xxMikexx [17]
If we let
x as the distance traveled by the boat
y as the distance between the boat and the lighthouse.

Then, we have:
tan 18°33' = 200 / (x + y)
and
tan 51°33' = 200 / y

Solving for y in the second equation:
y = 200 / tan 51°33'

Rearranging the first equation and substituting y
x = 200 / tan 18°33' - 200 / tan 55°33'
x = 458.81 ft

Therefore, the boat traveled 458.81 ft before it stopped.

Find the perimeter and the area of each shape. Give your answer as a completely simplified exact value in terms of π (no approxi
nydimaria [60]

Answer:

Circumference: 12π + 8 cm,

Area: 48 ( cm )^2

Step-by-step explanation:

This figure is composed of circles, squares, and semicircles. As you can see, the squares indicate that each semicircle should have ( 1 ) the same area, and ( 2 ) the same length ( circumference ). It would be easier to take the circumference of the figure first, as it is composed of arcs part of semicircles the same length.

Circumference of 1 semicircle = \frac{1}{2}( πd ) =  \frac{1}{2}π( 4 ) = 2π ( cm )

Circumference of Figure (composed of 6 semicircles + 2 sides of a square),

We know that 6 semicircles should be 6 * 2π, and as the sides of a square are equal - if one side is 4 cm, the other 3 are 4 cm as well. Therefore the " 2 sides of a square " should be 2

Circumference of Figure = 6 * 2π + 2 = 12π + 8 ( cm )

_____________

The area of this figure is our next target. As you can see, it is composed of 3 semicircles, and the area of 3 semicircles subtracted from the area of 3 squares. Therefore, let us calculate the area of 1 semicircle, and the area of 1 square first.

Area of 1 semicircle = 1/2πr^2 = 1/2π(2)^2 = 2π ( cm ),

Area of 1 square = ( 4 cm )( 4 cm ) = 16 ( cm^2 )

So, the area of the figure should be the following -

Area of Figure = 3 * 2π + 3( 16 - 2π ) = 48 ( cm )^2

Samuel earned 18.90 working last weekend. He worked for 2 and 1 fourth hours. Which equation and solution represents e, the amou
Alexus [3.1K]

Answer:

The equation that represents the amount Samuel earns per hour is "e = (total earned)/(total time worked)", on last weekend he earned 8.4 per hour.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since Samuel worked a total of 2 and 1/4 hours it means that he worked:

hours worked = 2 + 1/4

hours worked = 8/4 + 1/4

hours worked = 9/4

He earned a total of 18.9 working that many hours. If we divide the total amount he earned by the number of worked hours we can find the total he earns per hour.

e = (total earned)/(total time worked)

e = 18.9/(9/4)

e = 18.9*(4/9)

e = 75.6/9

e = 8.4 per hour

The equation that represents the amount Samuel earns per hour is "e = (total earned)/(total time worked)", on last weekend he earned 8.4 per hour.
